What is Pat Brady's horses name?

Asked by Wiki User

Before the Jeep, Pat Brady rode a mule. Given his famous phrase, "Whoa, Nellie", I suspect that that was the mule's name. If so, then it must have the the progenitor name that was later applied to the Jeep, Nellie Belle. This is just a strong suspicion. I would have to buy a bunch of old Roy Rogers movies (some are available) and go through them hoping to find a definitive answer. Someday, I might do just that.

What was Roy Rogers' childhood like?

Roy Rogers, born Leonard Franklin Slye (November 5, 1911 - July 6, 1998), AKA 'King of the Cowboys'was a very popular American.

Singer, cowboy actor, and the namesake of the Roy Rogers Restaurants chain, he has three different stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

His childhood was, to say the least, rough. He was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, where his family had a place in a tenement on 2nd Street. Riverfront Stadium was subsequently built in 1970 on that spot, and 'Roy' would joke that he'd been 'born on second base'.

Leonard never did graduate high school, even after taking night school while working with his father at a shoe factory. Having been rocked by the economic hardships of the Great Depression, he and his family virtually became refugees, picking fruit and living in worker campsites.

When his father sought work at another shoe factory in Los Angeles, Leonard told his dad that he wanted to pursue a career in the music business. By 1932, he was touring with his cousin Stanley Slye, billed as "The Slye Brothers".

Did Roy Rogers smoke?

Asked by Wiki User

No.

"Look, I hate smoking. It took my parents from me, my father with lung cancer, my mother with emphysema. They both liked Luckies. When my dad's cancer was diagnosed, they played it safe and switched to Winstons. When my mother was breathing oxygen through a tube, she'd take out the tube, turn off the oxygen, and light up. I avoid smokers. It isn't allowed in our house. When I see someone smoking, it feels like i'm watching them bleed themselves, one drip at a time."

Roy rogers first starring role was in what film?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Roy Rogers in TV shows played a modern Western Sheriff who used both Horses and modern vehicles ( such as Jeeps) Both were shown as were, from what I understood Guided missile sites in the desert, a most modern touch. Roy Rogers was classed as a juvenile western. Violence directed against lead characters- particularily Law Enforcement characters, was a no-no. It wasn"t done. The argument can be stretched in saying there is no real suspense- no matter what the background music, in serial fiction, as the show must go on next week, etc. It is a mere matter of logic. you don"t kill off your lead character.
